Oven Not Heating Evenly? Bake Element 316415900 – Fix Uneven Baking Fast

A failed bake element is the #1 reason electric range ovens stop heating properly. In most Frigidaire and Electrolux ranges, this is caused by a burned-out or broken lower bake element. When it fails, the oven won't reach temperature, food bakes unevenly, or the element shows visible burn marks or breaks. ⚡ Common failure point in Frigidaire-built electric ranges. Part 316415900 is the genuine OEM replacement that restores full lower-heat function and even baking performance.

❓ Is This the Right Part?

This is the correct fix if ALL of the following are true:

• ✔ Appliance powers on and broil/top element works normally
• ✔ Oven light, clock, and controls function correctly
• ✔ Electrical supply to the range is confirmed OK
• ✔ ONLY problem is the oven not heating from the bottom or baking unevenly

Not sure? Send us your model number — we'll confirm before you order.

🔧 Common Symptoms

• Oven not reaching set temperature
• Food undercooked on the bottom or baking unevenly
• Visible burn mark, crack, or blister on the lower element
• Oven takes much longer than normal to preheat

✔ If these symptoms match, this is the most likely failed component in the system.

✔ In most cases, replacing this bake element restores normal oven operation immediately.
